One research questions guided the study while one hypothesis was tested. Quasi-experimental research design was adopted. The sample of the study comprised 267 respondents made up of 114 male and 153 female students in Awka Education Zone Anambra State. Simple random sampling technique was used to select two secondary schools from each of the three local government areas in Awka Educational Zone. The pre-test and post test were administered to both the control and experimental group. JITT method was used to teach the experimental group while the control group was taught the same lesson using traditional method. Also the researchers developed questionnaire whose reliability index was found to be 0.82 using the Cronbach Alpha formula. Data collected from study were analyzed. The research questions were answered using mean and standard deviation while hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance using ANCOVA. Findings are that achievement grades of students taught business studies using JITT method were greater than those taught using traditional method; there was significant effect of gender on the students' mean achievement scores of students taught business studies using JITT method. It was recommended among others that JITT should be formally adopted for instruction in secondary schools in order to improve students' performance.

Edmodo Learning Management System (ELMS) has been claimed to be one of such approach. This study sought to determine if (ELMS)would facilitate students' academic retention of financial accounting concepts more than the lecture method. Guided by two research questions, this study was a quasiexperimental design. A purposive sample of 257 SSII students was selected. A researcher developed EDMODO Financial Accounting Retention Test (EFART) was used to collect data. The study, which lasted for 6 weeks, utilized the ELMSfor the experimental group, and lecture method [LM) for control group. Data was analyzed using mean, standard deviation and gain score. Finding indicated that ELMSapproach is more effective for enhancing student's academic retention of financial accounting concepts irrespective of gender, than the LM. This implies that ELMS could be effectively used in intact classes to enhance the retention abilities of students in financial accounting concepts among male and female students. Based on findings, it was recommended that innovative activity-based instructional approaches such as ELMS should be adopted by secondary school financial accounting teachers for teaching.

Globalization can be use to describe the growing world wide interdependence of people and countries economically, politically, culturally and environmentally. This paper examined bank fraud, its causes and types of bank fraud. The rate at which Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is being applied to perpetrate crime in Nigeria is becoming worrisome. Different methods of defrauding banks were revealed in this paper. Also, computer and ICT have made bank crime easy.

Two research questions guided the study while two hypotheses were tested. Quasi -experimental research design was adopted. The sample of the study comprised 267 respondents made up of 114 male and 153 female students in Awka Educational zone .Simple random sampling technique was used to select two secondary schools from each of the three local government areas in Awka Educational zone. All the SS II students offering financial accounting in the selected schools were purposively chosen for the study. One school from each of the three local government areas was selected and assigned to experimental group while one school again from each of the local governments was also selected and assigned to control group. Thus, each of the three local governments in Awka Educational zone has one experimental group and one control group. The pretest and post test were administered to both the control and experimental group. JITT method was used teach the experimental group while control group was taught the same lesson using conventional method. Also the researcher developed questionnaire whose reliability index was found to be 0.78 using the cronbach Alpha formula. Data collected from study were analyzed. The research questions were answered using mean scores and standard deviation while hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance using ANCOVA. A number of finding were made from the study which include the following: The achievement grades of students taught financial accounting using JITT method are greater than those taught using conventional method; there was significant effect of gender on the students' mean achievement scores of students taught financial accounting using JITT method. In line with the findings, it was recommended among other that JITT should be formally adopted for instruction in secondary schools in order to improve students' performance.
